Drake Hogestyn Is Returning As John Black
According to the news, Drake Hogestyn is returning to Days Of Our Lives. He first appeared as John Black in November 1985 and continued in the role until January 2009.

After a confrontation with John Kapelos’ Konstantin, John felt guilty about what happened to Konstantin’s daughter. He soon left Salem to apologize at Ellie Patrikios’s Catherina’s grave after informing his wife, Marlena (Deidre Hall). Marlena last heard from him after he arrived in Greece.
We’ve seen his wife missing him a lot lately on the show, along with Stephen Nichols’ Steve. Viewers can look forward to John’s return this week, where he will appear alongside Marlena, Eric Martsolf’s Brady, Christopher Sean’s Paul, and others.
It isn’t the first time John has faced a turbulent storyline; he has always been a part of such plots. These include his dark past, memory loss, and life-threatening incidents. Anyway, as viewers, we can’t deny that John has consistently kept us on the edge of our seats.
A Mysterious Woman Resurfaces
Meanwhile, AnnaLynne McCord will reappear in the role of a mysterious woman who is believed to be the late Abigail. Although McCord’s character appeared in a video back in June, she’ll debut in person with Billy Flynn’s Chad and Matthew Ashford’s Jack. The actress has signed a one-year contract to portray a complex woman who may be Chad’s late wife.
McCord is a young star has an impressive background. She is known for her role as Naomi Clark on CW’s 90210 (2008-2013). Additionally, she has been featured in American Heiress, The Night Shift, Nip/Tuck, Secrets and Lies, The OC, and other shows. Look for her to appear on DOOL this week as a captivating woman.
Later this week, Colton Little, Madelyn Kientz, and Remington Hoffman will reprise their respective roles. While Colton enjoys more airtime as Andrew Donovan, Madelyn will step back as Sophia Choi to interact with Ashley Puzemis’ Holly.
Colton, on the other hand, will have major scenes with Christopher Sean’s Paul. Apart from these two actors, Remington Hoffman will return to make another appearance as late Li Shin. He’ll feature in fantasy scenes alongside Julie Dove’s Connie.
